FIGHTING for America Act of 2025

This bill changes the rules around a policy that currently lets shipments worth $800 or less enter the U.S. without paying tariffs, fees, or taxes. It would stop this exemption from applying to certain types of goods, including those covered by specific trade protections, items considered sensitive imports like textiles and clothing, and goods that have a pattern of being imported illegally. The bill also requires Customs and Border Protection to collect more information about these low-value shipments, charges a fee for each shipment that still qualifies for the exemption, and sets up penalties for people who lie to customs officials or help with unlawful importing. Additionally, it requires Customs and Border Protection to make it a priority to address the smuggling of fentanyl and other drugs through these small shipments.
